Remember to do your research in the independent’s. Articles like this is a good introduction to them but obviously does not cover on all their views. Some of those other views can be wildly against what you want to see in other areas of our society.

Independents are really good in theory. Particularly for local representation, if you get a good one. But without a party platform and well developed policies you often don’t know what you are getting. Parties aren’t always a bad thing. The problem is the duopoly providing limiting choices.
Some of the independents are people who were too shitty even for Family First, PHON, Trump, Liberal Party so went solo. People need to do their research carefully.
